Automation Engineer at a educational organization with 11-50 employees
Dynamic templates have streamlined student and parent email campaigns and build consistent engagement
The activity log is a little slower at times, but that is probably just nitpicking an issue. Overall, in general, there are not really very difficult pain points. There are certain issues sometimes when we are trying to handle a very big campaign; we might end up having a little bit less reputation in terms of bounces or spam reports that get detected when we send out the emails. Apart from that, there is not anything that would become a significant pain point. If you don't really have an advanced subscription for SendGrid, it might take a while for you to reach the customer support.

Product Manager at a computer software company with 10,001+ employees
A scalable and easy-to-use solution that has a good user interface and a responsive support team
The product had a couple of bugs. However, the vendor resolved the bugs quickly. People wanting to use the solution must try it out. If they like it, they can switch it on. I have seen and tried many other products. ZeptoMail is pretty easy and straightforward. Overall, I rate the tool a nine out of ten.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The API configuration is much cleaner in SendGrid."
"Easy API documentation is the most valuable feature of SendGrid, including its deliverability rate."
"It is easy to set up."
"SendGrid has positively impacted my organization by being a trusted partner for sending emails."
"SendGrid is a most powerful third-party tool to use for email sending, and it improves the delivery rates compared to other services."
"With SendGrid, we have found a perfect solution to that scenario, and we don't have to involve infrastructure team anymore."
"Overall, it provides a good return on investment through reliability, time savings, and improved communication."
"Their REST API feature is the most amazing and easy API I have used."
"The user interface is valuable to me."
 

Cons

"The biggest problem that we have faced is with the authentication during login. For certain people, SendGrid requires MFA, which is good as a security feature, but it doesn't always work in all geographies. We've got people and users who are based in Nigeria, and some of those people had real trouble logging into SendGrid because the MFA wouldn't send codes to people on their numbers. The security mechanism that they use for login doesn't work in all geographies."
"The contact limit alerts need to be improved."
"SendGrid can be improved by making it more versatile and facilitating easier connections with third parties."
"The documentation is not fine, so I believe the documentation needs to be improved."
"Maybe they could have a mobile application to give to admins, so they could see some insights related to the data."
"Customer Service: 4/5. Technical Support: 3/5."
"SendGrid could improve pricing flexibility and offer more detailed analytics without extra cost."
"For my use case, SendGrid is very good. The cost could potentially be improved, though I am not very familiar with pricing details."
"We had some minor bugs."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"My company pays for SendGrid monthly, and though I cannot share the amount, my feedback is that the vendor should accept other modes of payment apart from a credit card."
"The basic plan starts at €90 per month."
"The solution is relatively inexpensive."
"I use the essential plan which is $20 a month. After that, we use the pro which is $90 a month, and had all our costs bundled in."
"We are using the Advanced plan,10K. That is about $100 per month but sometimes we do go over the limit of the plan."
"Its cost can vary. It can go as low as $10 or $15 to $1,000 depending on how much you use it."
"The solution is the cheapest in the market."
